[Dr. Inouye]. Plus, besides being an amaz- ing doctor who takes time to explain pro- cedures thoroughly and give advice on maintaining a healthy body, especially for dancers, [Dr. Inouye] is also a wonderful, generous, kind-hearted and caring person,” the dancer’s mother raved about Dr. In- ouye’s treatment.
Megadeth frontman, Dave Mustaine, shared a testimonial on Blabbermouth.net which includes Dr. Inouye’s help in restor- ing function of Mustaine’s arm after an in- jury he sustained. He explained that during his rehabilitation, he fell asleep in a chair at a hospital with his arm over the back of the chair, which resulted in the circulation to his radial ulnar nerve to be compressed – a condition referred to as “Saturday Night Palsy.”
“The doctor in Texas said that I was probably not going to be able to use my arm any more than 80 percent, ‘if I was lucky’. And he also said I ‘would probably not play again,’” Mustaine stated.
Adamant about restoring the full func- tion and feeling of his arm, he sought help from his doctor in Scottsdale, Raj Smith. Upon evaluation, Mustaine received physi- cal therapy from Nathan Koch at the Spire
Institute, acupuncture from Dr. Vance In- ouye and chiropractic adjustments from Dr. William Tikey, as well as some weight training.
After a few months of intense and in- credibly painful rehabilitation of his arm, Mustaine received news of a ‘full recovery,’ from Dr. Singh for which Mustaine went back to re-learn his craft of playing the gui- tar again.
Dr. Inouye gladly interfaces with conven- tional medical doctors whenever necessary offering his expertise in naturopathic treat- ments and therapies. He truly enjoys what he does and holds the gratification of his clients close.
“I am able to truly help people with their health concerns, going to the root of their problems rather than just treating their symptoms,” a statement that can be reflected in Dr. Inouye’s work as a naturo- pathic physician. Naturopathic medicine is emphasized as a whole system’s approach – “where an individual’s health is viewed as a sum of their total parts versus a symp- tom of their disease” – where all aspects of health such as physical, mental and emo- tional factors are addressed in helping the body recover and restore proper function.
